No, Little Paul, this falls under our jurisdiction too. x_x

*sighs* If I hadn't got fired I could have moved it back myself.

Why did this get moved out of Webbies anyway? o_O
*moves back to Resources and unlocks*

Since when would web hosting not be a webmaster question, Paul? >>

Aaaaanyway. To answer your question, you could run it off your home connection but it'd be ridiculously slow and no one would want to use it. Your best bet is to buy a (managed) dedicated server from a server farm somewhere. That's what Greg and I did until we broke it and ran out of money.

Yea, thats the best thing to do, have a managed dedicated server, they just cost so darn much, its best to have a couple of people go in with you; I mean, unless your running so big of sites that they require that much bw/space that only a dedicated provides.

Well, thats not a bad idea, just theres a few problems you may have to deal with; mainly being competition; I mean theres so many hosts out there now that you have to have a way to get customers to come to you, and not go to the competition; as for a location; if you wanted you could just run it out of your home; I'm not saying run the servers off your home connection; but you could do something like co-location where your server is running on their network, or you could just purchase a few dedicated servers, XD.

Dreamweaver won't help you in a web hosting business, only to make sites.
